Transport
We believe it is imperative that the support we provide for pupils begins from the moment their school day starts; including travelling to and from school. As such we ensure that our skilled keyworkers provide the transport with a door to door philosophy. This enables parents/carers to have daily face to face contact with school staff sharing concerns or positives instantly, fostering strong relationships. The travel period allows staff, time to support the pupils social and emotional wellbeing. This in turn can provide teachers with poignant information, as is necessary, of the pupil’s mental health before the day begins. We believe that, where possible, pupils should travel for no more than an hour to reach their school.
